You can get more reliable power out of a 2jz in this car than you can with an LS. Will it handle better?? I don't know depends what type of driving you are doing...
seems like most on here are interested in AutoX because that's what the toyobaru twins are best for out of the box.
A remington 700 is best for 200-400yd shooting out of the box. I could make it a good assault rifle with enough mods though.
It wouldn't really resemble a remington 700 any more and you would be much better off starting with an AR and making a 300 blackout, but that doesn't mean it wouldn't be a whole lot of fun to do and have something completely unique.
It's the same with the FRS... People act like the FRS has to be used for autoX and mountain driving because that's what it's most competitive at out of the box.
I know the above has little to do with your posts and desires.
It really just depends what you want in the end.
Are you willing to sacrifice some handling and CG for a stronger base to work from without the ability to FI later or whatever, or do you wanna build up an engine that came with the car... arguments can be made both ways, but don't try to argue that you aren't sacrificing anything by doing the LS swap, because that would be disingenuous or at the least incorrect.

Just like turboing an frs with a front mount causes just as many cg sacrifices... Again ignoring points that done line up with what you want to say. Like the corner weight pictures posted of actual swaps.
